Montessori-Inspired Colors and Diversity Activities Using Free Printables

By Deb Chitwood from Living Montessori Now

I have some new printables and activities to welcome spring! Instead of the more traditional color mixing and rainbow activities, though, I'm featuring colors and diversity. There's also a colors and diversity themed pack for newsletter subscribers at LivingMontessoriNow.com!

You'll find many activities for preschoolers through first graders throughout the year in my previous posts at PreK + K Sharing. You'll also find ideas for using free printables to create activity trays here: How to Use Printables to Create Montessori-Inspired Activities. 

At Living Montessori Now, I have a post with resource links of Free Printables for Montessori Homeschools and Preschools.
